*BBBSGC is currently introducing Bigs and Littles “virtually” and if you choose, the friendship can begin over the phone, Facetime, Google Duo, etc. BBBSGC guidelines currently allow face to face interaction and you will be able to do some fun activities together as long as social distancing guidelines are followed. This includes wearing a mask, staying six feet apart, and only doing outside activities.
Being a Big Brother or Big Sister in Greater Cincinnati is one of the most enjoyable things you’ll ever do and one of the most rewarding. Mentoring has a huge impact on the children we serve. 100% are in school, 99% are not involved with the juvenile justice system, 99% are substance-abuse free.
Best of all, being a Big Brother or Big Sister is a lot of fun! You and your Little can share the kinds of activities you already like to do. Play sports together. Go on a hike. Read books. Eat a pizza with extra pepperoni. Or just give some advice and inspiration. Whatever activities you enjoy, odds are you’ll enjoy them even more with your Little--and you’ll be part of a life-changing friendship.
Our Big Brothers and Big Sisters come from diverse backgrounds just like our Littles. You don’t need any special degrees or job skills. Role models come in all shapes and sizes, and you could be a perfect fit!
We have two ways you can be part of a life-changing friendship:
Community-Based Mentoring: This program gives Bigs and Littles an opportunity to experience a wide range of activities all over the Tri-state. This is what you probably think of as the more traditional Big Brothers Big Sisters program with your match meeting a few hours a week for an incredibly fun and bonding experience!
Site-Based Mentoring: This is a mentoring opportunity for you to meet with your Little once a week at their school or Boys & Girls Club to help with homework, play games, share lunch and build a friendship.
